What is the essence of contract trading? Ultimately, it will either lead you to rapid asset growth or quick zeroing out. It sounds brutal, but this is the truth of the market.
I have seen too many traders around me who rush into the contract market with just a few thousand USDT, dreaming of turning things around through leverage trading. But reality is often harsh—frequent liquidations happen, and in the end, they can only blame the exchange and market unfairness.
I have also gone through these experiences. Starting with 8,000 yuan, during that period I almost stared at the K-line every night, trembling and panicking when seeing floating losses, almost being eliminated by the market.
The reason I am still here is definitely not luck, but because I gradually understood a key issue: liquidation is not an accident, but an inevitable result of a lack of trading awareness.
Many people think that opening 3x or 5x leverage can ensure stable profits, but in fact, this only makes losses come slower. Every increase in leverage multiplies risk not linearly, but exponentially. Coupled with hidden costs like fees, slippage, and overtrading, your principal is being eroded unknowingly.
But if you master the correct methodology, the situation can be completely different. I have spent time deeply studying technical indicators like BOLL bands, learning to capture signals of "opening" and "closing" the bands. Before a trend truly starts, these indicators often give early warnings.
Using this system, I once achieved a 30x account growth within a month. This is not a myth, but the result of strictly following trading discipline.
If you are still blindly trading and repeatedly getting liquidated, the problem is not luck, but the lack of a complete risk management system. Instead of exploring on your own, it’s better to systematically learn and optimize.

To be honest, numbers like 30x are just for show; those who truly survive are focused on steady compound growth.

There's nothing wrong with that, but if the cognition is not there, no matter how much principal you have, it's useless.
Those who get liquidated want to shift blame, but it's really just a lack of discipline.
A 30x increase sounds impressive, but can it be replicated? That's the key.
Leverage is truly a double-edged sword; once your mindset collapses, it's over.
I'm also using BOLL, but I keep testing it repeatedly, and I still tend to miss out.
Those in the朋友圈 who post daily gains, I've never seen a liquidation screenshot from them.
I agree with the term cognitive deficiency, but the risk management system is too vague. How exactly do you operate it?

Liquidation is really a matter of perception, I agree with that. But those claiming a 30x growth should also clarify whether it's a survivorship bias...
